MY BIG CONCERNS ABOUT AMERICA:

Internally- We spend too much time assuring our rights without learning the responsibilities that should accompany them.Externally - No matter how much we claim to take the higher moral ground, we have neither respected nor attempted to understand other cultures.

I typically really like cards from the Tom Barker/National Game sets, but I always have winced when viewing the Wagner from them...just a really awkward looking fielding pose. My affordable choice from the OP's original choices would be the E254 Colgan Chip card, because it has the nice 'T206' photo portrait, and no need to worry about corner wear.

Buy something with his portrait, preferably the same exact pic as his t206 card, or something very similar. The M116 pastels generally can be had at a reasonable price. The 1906 fan craze is also reasonable and has the money shot, but personally, I don't like game cards.
